Good morning, do i had this call a couple of years ago, a child keeps getting out of the school hes around 5 or 6, theres a shop nearby to the school, he'd always go to the shop, school stop the child going out at lunchtime and play time he had to eat his lunch in the class with a teacher, teacher has a walkie talkie thingy to report if child dissappears, no hate to the school they were trying to keep the child safe, parents wanted the child to be able to have playtime, eat in the dining room, so my answer was simple, walk the route with your child at weekends he wants to explore so do so in a safe way, so every weekend they walk around the area near the school they then go to the shop, but lets be clear this is something we do on the weekend, put it on the calendar use pecs symbols, show a picture of mum and dad, a picture of you all walking a picture of the shop, put these pictures on Saturday and Sunday on the calendar, now Monday to Friday show picture of school, but there are things you must do for this to work, you must keep to this routine, you must go at the same time each weekend rain,snow, whatever, you go each weekend, you keep to the routine, it didn't work on the first week or even the second or third but slowly over time it did work eventually, over time. Routines take time, time to build the trust and the security thats needed to feel safe within them, that little boy now has his lunch in the dining room.
